Ice Arena - This project is essentially completed, but there are still a couple <br />of building issues that require our attention. These items include the roof, <br />heating, and the dehumidifier situation. On the positive side, the seating has <br />been corrected and now meets code and all of the seating is available for the <br />public. <br /> <br />The request to the city was for "four walls and a sheet of ice." We do have a <br />very nice Olympic sheet of ice and we got a good project for our money. <br />However, the bare bones project needs some additional expenditures in order <br />for the arena to function properly and we are looking at these issues one at a <br />time based on priorities. When anyone tries to do a $3 million project for <br />$2.7 million, you will have some problems in the design and "value <br />engineering" which will require additional expenditures after the project is <br />completed. This appears to be the case with the dehumidifier situation in <br />which the improper functioning of this system has some potential negative <br />long term effects on the building and needs to be addressed. Options are <br />being reviewed to resolve the situation, but none of the options for improving <br />the air circulation in order for the dehumidifier to function correctly are <br />cheap. <br /> <br /> <br />
